To estimate the percentage of a state's voters who support the current

governor for reelection, three newspapers each survey a simple random

sample of voters. Each paper calculates the percentage of voters in their

sample who support the governor and uses that as an estimate for the

population parameter. Here are the results:

• The Herald: n = 1000 voters sampled; sample estimate = 61%

• The Tribune: n = 800 voters sampled; sample estimate = 57%

The Times: n= 600 voters sampled; sample estimate = 71%

All else being equal, which newspaper's estimate is likely closest to the actual

percentage of voters who support the governor for reelection?

Each of the following data sets has a mean of x = 10. (i) 8 9 10 11 12 (ii) 7 9 10 11 13 (iii) 7 8 10 12 13 (a) without doing any computations, order the data sets according to increasing value of standard deviations. (i), (iii), (ii) (ii), (i), (iii) (iii), (i), (ii) (iii), (ii), (i) (i), (ii), (iii) (ii), (iii), (i) (b) why do you expect the difference in standard deviations between data sets (i) and (ii) to be greater than the difference in standard deviations between data sets (ii) and (iii)? hint: consider how much the data in the respective sets differ from the mean. the data change between data sets (i) and (ii) increased the squared difference îł(x - x)2 by more than data sets (ii) and (iii). the data change between data sets (ii) and (iii) increased the squared difference îł(x - x)2 by more than data sets (i) and (ii). the data change between data sets (i) and (ii) decreased the squared difference îł(x - x)2 by more than data sets (ii) and (iii). none of the above
